By Isreal John
That rush through my spine,
The contortion of my flesh,
That taste of cold air.
Chilling the water was,
I tried to hold my breath,
Tried to keep it in,
But this voice in my chest,
Screeching, and pounding,
And beating.
I place my hand where it lies and beg it to stop.
I hear it so clearly,
Becoming so small,
I cry out to it’s voices,
But I can’t hear them all.
